The Panel Wire Schedule Format

The field structure for the panel wire schedule file, <ProjectName>WIRSCH.dbf, is as follows:

Field NameDefault WidthDescriptionSource
WIRE 25 Name given to wire marker attached to the conductor or default conductor name From WIRENAME attribute of wire marker OR generated internally
NETWORK 10 Number given to each physically connected set of line segments representing a wire (where continuation is ignored). Generated inside report function
PNLNO 25 Panel number for this termination From attribute of component at termination
DEV_TBLK 25 Name given to the device or terminal block at this termination for the conductor From TAGNAME or TBLOCK attribute of component at termination
TERM 25 Terminal number of device or terminal block at this termination for the conductor From terminal attribute of component at termination
TERMSIDE 12 The side of a polarised terminal into which this conductor is connected. Position of line segment on schematic drawing.
FERRULE 25 Ferrule(wire label), if one is placed at this termination or name of this wire if no ferrule(wire label) marker exists From Termination block attributes or same as WIRE field
TYPE 15 Type of wire as given in the catalog, blank if default named wire From catalog if wire marker exists
SIZE 10 Size of wire as given in the catalog, blank if default named wire From catalog if wire marker exists
RATING 20 Rating of the wire as given in the catalog, blank if default named wire From catalog if wire marker exists
REFRNCE 59 Reference of location of component at this termination for the conductor Calculated from position of component on drawing
MANUF 25 Manufacturer name for wire, blank if default named wire From MFG attribute of wire marker if it exists
CATNO 50 Manufacturer's part number, blank if default named wire From CATNO attribute of wire marker if it exists
USER 55 User defined data From USER catalog field
PRICE 10 Price per unit length as given in the catalog, blank if default named wire From catalog if wire marker exists
STATUS 59 The status of the component. Can be either FIXED, MIXED or FLUID. You can configure these words in the Setup Preferences page Generated in function
CRIMP_A 59 The crimp for the wire From Termination block attributes
WARNINGS 255 Wire schedule warnings Generated in function
ORDER 6 Wire order number Order attribute from Termination block
DRUMSIZE 15 The length of wire contained in one whole drum. Used by Paneldes to produce a drumming report. From catalog if wire marker exists

Notes

  • When "only wire extension markers can be continuations" and join the networks of line segments that make up wires, a connected line segment network can be identified only by considering both the wirename (WIRE column) and network value (NETWORK column). This is as a result of the possible re-use of a wirename in a second panel under this system. See Conductor Naming and Continuation.
